JVESSEL FOR M EASURING @{ICE-CREAM.

$BECIIEIGA'1ION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 283,1 5, dated August 14, 1883.

Application filed February 2,1883, (NomodeL) H To all whom it may concern;

Be it known that I, HENRY B. TAnmcKEu, ahcitizen of the United .States, residing at Muscatine, in the county of Muscatine and" State of Iowa, have invented certain ,new and useful Improvements in Vessels for Meas uring Ice-Cream; and I do'hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable oth 'ers skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

This invention f relates to improvements in measuring.vessels for ice-cream, andhas for cause it to slip out readily, smoothand solid,

without anytrouble. This obj eot is attained by the construction shown in the drawings forming a part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a vertical, section taken on the line a: as of Fig. 2. i Fig. 2 is a view taken from n n Fig. 3 is a view takeufrom the top with the handle broken away. A

The measure consists in an innervessel, A, made of tin or other suitable material, andan outer vessel, B, secured at the top by the cap IL and atthe' bottom by the tube E, which penetrates both vessels. A is the bottom of the inner vessel B is the bottom of the, outer vessel; The cap b has outer andinner flanges,

- b and a, and is soldered to the outer vessel,

to enter into the inner vessel, A. D is the open spacebetween the two vessels. 0 is a valve or' cook, which permits the introduction of water between "the two vessels into the space D. p

Ice-cream dealers experience a great deal of trouble in measuring the cream, for the cold :cream putinto acommon measure will freeze to the sides and "bottom. This difficulty is overcome by thisice-cream measure by keepingthe spaoeD between the outer and inner vessels filled with water, which prevents the cream fromfreezing to the sides of the measure. The pipeE admits the pressure of the air as soon as the measure is tipped over, causing the cream to slip out readily, smooth and solid, without anytrouble. I

Having described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,

,1. In an ice-cream measure, an outer and inner vessel having a space between the two adapted to hold ,water, and an air-pipe penetrating the bottom of each vessel, as described, and for the purposes set forth.

2. In an ice-oream measure, the cap b and the air-pipe E, in combination with the inner vessel, A, and the outer vessel, 13, sub stantially as described, and for the purposes set forth. V

3. The combination, inan ice-cream measure, of the cap I), the inner vessel, A,the outer vessel, B, and the pipe E, with the valve 0, substantially as described, and for the'purposes set forth.

In testimony whereof I affixiny signature in presence of two witnesses. I
